What Is EV100
The transport sector is the fastest-growing contributor to climate change, accounting for 23% of
global energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Electric transport offers a major solution
in cutting millions of tons of greenhouse gas emissions per year, as well as curbing transport
related air and noise pollution.
With businesses/organisations owning over half of all registered vehicles on the road, it is crucial
that companies lead the shift to electric vehicles. Through their investment, and influence on
millions of staff and customers worldwide, they can address rising global transport emissions.
They can also significantly enhance mass demand for electric vehicles. By setting out their future
EV purchasing requirements on an ambitious timescale, companies can drive mass roll-out and
make electric cars more rapidly affordable for everyone around the world.
Through EV100, companies can showcase their electric transport leadership, and help members
to reduce electric vehicle investment costs through best practice sharing. The campaign drives
engagement and dialogue between governments and other stakeholders to collaboratively address
the remaining barriers to EV uptake and infrastructure roll-out.
To join, companies are invited to make a public commitment to one or more of the following
areas with a 2030 target date:
OUR IMPACT
More and more leading companies are joining EV100 to accelerate the electric transport
transition, reduce air pollution and tackle climate change.
At the end of its first year in September 2018, EV100 members had made fleet and charging
commitments across more than 66 markets and a wide range of sectors, from postal and logistics
to retail and telecommunications.
The combined commitments by EV100 members will eliminate emissions from more than 2
million vehicles by 2030 and will provide millions of staff and customers with additional
charging infrastructure. EV100 members have committed to install charging infrastructure at
around 2,000 workplace and customer parking sites.
Through EV100, The Climate Group harnesses the collective purchasing power of EV100
members to build demand for electric vehicles and send a clear signal to the market.
